View Full Version : Glacier Blue Limited Edition Review

The latest in Hummer?s run of limited edition H2s is the new 2007 Glacier Blue. The new package has many of the same features as earlier limited editions. Notably the carbon fiber dash kit, rear view camera, and rear seat entertainment. Some options were removed from the package like the color matched tail-lamp guards and the brush guard. However some new items never seen on a Limited Edition from Hummer have appeared: Chrome side vents and a chrome hood panel. These look pretty good, but I was a little disappointed to see Hummer use plastic instead of real chrome pieces like the hood handles. They did add real chrome rear tow-hooks, but kept the black bolt that attaches them. The rear-seat entertainment also got an upgrade ? no longer is the single DVD player taking up all the center console space ? the new system is dual DVD contained in the front two headrests. The color is pretty decent looking in the sun ? but I would bet the color would be preferred by females. It almost has that Miami-Vice feel to the color ? and I could picture Don Johnson climbing out of the driver?s seat in a matching sport-coat. One cool part is the new wheel. At first this wheel looked a little busy, but after seeing in polished, its a pretty nice ?bling? option that is factory approved. Hummer is unique since all of their wheels must go through the normal tests for a GM vehicle, but then need to be tested for extreme off-roading. Overall I like it better than the previous limited editions, as I was not a big fan of the tail lamp guards and brush guard ? I?m guessing Florida, especially southern Florida, will see the biggest sales numbers for this particular vehicle.

:twak:
NO! They should have called it PRIUS BLUE.

I cannot believe they launched that color! Barf! I thought they were also bringing back the red too.

:jump: :lame:

I think it has those lowsy Goodyears on it too. FUKK bling editions, how about an H2 Alpha PKG w/ front lockers, 37's, beefed up front end (tie rods, diff and shafts), better skid plates, black wheels, winch, etc.

I understand colors are subjective, but I have to agree, it is an ugly color. I sometime wonder about these people in marketing who decide on the colors.:(

I'm wondering about these people too. Were they eating a bowl of Lucky Charms and looked at the blue marshmellows and say "WOW, that's a great idea."

DISCLAIMER: I am in no way dirrecting this comment at or to offend color blind people or CO HUMMER.... but damn. Are they colorblind? That's baby blue, robin egg blue, a pastel color, a color that belongs on a hand knitt sweater from the 80's that CO HUMMER is sewing at this very moment.

I'm sure this color will help HUMMER sales.:rant: Can I get a job there on whatever board makes these executive descisions? Where do i send my Resume?

I saw this color in person during the Homecoming in South Bend. I rather liked it. I think it looks much better in person.

GM have decided to leave that market all to Jeep :crying:Then I guess it's time to get one.

But don't rule GM out entirely...

And a hotter engine.
Make you wonder why one of the aftermarket tuners (DRM or Lingenfelter) hasn't come up with something like this.
It would be expensive, but very cool.

Since everyone hates this color, I might just have to get one.



BTW - I heard the new 4Dr Jeep Rubi will come in only pink and desert sand, chick colors. ;) :D

I just noticed there is no LE brushguard in that pic or a color matched grille.
